Hi,

We are a group of researchers who work on product design. We found Vizard in one of those tech fairs and liked what we saw from the demos. We are seriously considering buying it but not sure whether it is the solution that we are looking for. We'll appreciate that if you can let us know more about its capabilities. Our project has some specific requirements as follows:

1. Can we export the Vizard application as a Web-based program like Flash or some other similar output with special plug-ins?

2. Following the quesiton above, can AR stuff be incorporated and run on the internet?

3. We are also hoping to acheive a high level of visual realism so would like to know the Vizard's rendering capability of virual objects in AR-related applications.

4. For the tracking in AR, how small the marker can be? And this might be a dumb quesiton: Is it possible to use features found on, for example, human faces, instead of markers? Or we have to ask the user to stick a small pad on his/her forehead anyway?

I know it's probably too much to ask for Web-based AR applications, considering the varieties of task that need to be run in real time. So, we also welcome any suggestions of Vizard's alternative solutions to this problem.

Many thanks!
